I've decided to have 2 500GB drives in RAID0 for win7 and maybe perhaps backup the needed files manually on a third drive.
I had decided to go with the Samsung F3's but over the last couple of days I've decided to go with some WD blacks as I've always found the larger cache helps.
I've never used RAID before but I want to try something different but my steam folder is too large for a 128GB SSD and I don't like pre-ordering a product with no eta.
I have a Formula Crosshair III motherboard with 2 Sata's occupied by High def read and a dvd/rw drive so I have 3 Sata's left.
Would it be fine setting up the RAID straight off this board and also is there anything I'm overlooking with the blacks?
cheers
